I’m sorry; fake damage reports are NOT funny

NOAA NSSL/OU CIWRO TORP tornado probabilities have been maxing out for quite a while with this storm. Extreme AzShear values! #iawx

TORP tornado probability tracks for the April 2 outbreak. Wonder how many tornadoes will be in the final count once damage surveying is complete.

Rare California tornado warning! #cawx

My friend in Amber, OK got some large hail today, one looks like over 3 inches. This was after about 20-30 min of melting! #okwx

An interesting case where TORP tornado probabilities did not get noticeably impacted by a temporary decreasing trend in AzShear #txwx #lawx

We have enough rotation to trigger the TORP algorithm! Probabilities are low #wawx

Pretty sure this is the first time we have a real-time TORP tornado probability domain in this region of the country. Excited to see how TORP does for potential non-landspout cases in Western Region!

TORP tornado probability tracks from select radars for the March 14-16 severe weather outbreak.

Experimental CIWRO/NSSL TORP probabilities close to 100% as the storm moved through Saint Louis. Not good.

Update: it’s blown about 15 ft and fence is broken. Neighbor’s gutter was halfway torn down and bent.

Our shed just blew over in SW OKC 😳 #okwx

I get some of my tornado and severe weather research data from this website. Does this also mean we get no new official tornado reports since Storm Data entry will be down..?

Loved learning about new science stuff and catching up with old friends this week, but ngl, these guys were the highlight of the conference #AGU24

At #AGU24 and interested in machine learning? Tornadoes? Come check out my talk on CIWRO/NSSL’s Tornado Probability Algorithm TORP tomorrow (Wednesday) at 4:15 pm in 151B! agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me...
